By making a booking—whether pending or confirmed—you agree to the following terms and conditions. Payment of a deposit or in full constitutes acceptance of these terms.
Dog Health & Welfare
It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure their dog is fit, healthy, and able to participate in training sessions.
All dogs must be fully vaccinated and free from any infectious diseases. If you’re unsure of your dog’s health, please consult your vet before attending.
Dogs must be treated regularly for internal and external parasites.
Dogs that are unwell, or have been in contact with dogs carrying contagious illnesses, must not attend training.
Bitches in season are not permitted to attend classes.
Safety & Liability
Owners are fully responsible for their dog’s behaviour and welfare during all sessions.
Pet insurance is strongly recommended. Any veterinary costs incurred are the responsibility of the owner, regardless of how they arise.
Let’s Go Mantrailing accepts no responsibility for loss, injury, or illness to dogs while attending sessions.
All dogs must remain on lead at all times unless directed otherwise by an instructor.
Only flat collars and/or harnesses are permitted—retractable (flexi) leads are not allowed.
Training Approach
Let’s Go Mantrailing adheres strictly to the ethical guidelines set out by the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers.
Aversive equipment or techniques (e.g., prong collars, intimidation, or punishment-based methods) are not allowed and may result in immediate removal from a session without refund.
We use reward-based training and encourage owners to bring high-value treats and toys for motivation and reinforcement.
Children
Children are welcome to attend but must be supervised by an adult at all times.
Children should not interact with any dogs except their own.
Vehicles & Venue
Let’s Go Mantrailing is not liable for any loss or damage to personal belongings or vehicles.
Please avoid leaving valuables in your car, and never leave dogs unattended in a vehicle.
Sessions may be held outdoors—please wear appropriate footwear and clothing as the terrain may be uneven or slippery.
Behavioural Concerns
If your dog has behavioural issues, particularly aggression or reactivity, please speak with us before booking.
Dogs with known behavioural challenges must not be booked into group classes unless agreed upon in advance. Failure to disclose behavioural concerns may result in exclusion from class without refund.
We are happy to suggest suitable alternative training options where appropriate.
Owner Responsibility
Handlers are responsible for the actions of their dogs at all times.
It is advised to have liability insurance in the event of injury or damage caused by your dog to a person, another dog, or property.
Booking & Payment
Full payment is required at the time of booking to secure your place.
Cancellations
Courses run on consecutive weeks from your start date unless changed by the trainer.
Missed sessions are non-refundable and cannot be rescheduled.
Cancellations must be made at least 14 days in advance of your course start date or individual mantrailing session to receive a refund.
Cancellations made with less than 14 days’ notice are non-refundable.
Postponement of Sessions
If a session must be cancelled due to extreme weather or circumstances beyond our control, it will be rescheduled at a later date.
Photography & Media Consent
By agreeing to these terms, you grant Let’s Go Mantrailing permission to use photos and videos of you and/or your dog in marketing materials, including on social media and our website.
If you do not wish to be included in photos or videos, please inform us at the time of booking.
